解析：你是否同意下面的陈述？对政府来说，把钱花在艺术博物馆和音乐厅上比在游泳池和游乐场等娱乐设施上花钱更重要。政府决策类型题目本身就是托福独立写作常考题型之一，以上这篇题目2009.9.19北美就曾考过，2013.4.20也曾经考过。涉及政府决策的题目，我们就要考虑政府做一件事情的目的是什么，不光是为这件事情本身，肯定有一些隐含因素，比如为了促进经济、国家形象、人民生活、保护文化等等。切换不同的领域去考虑问题就能很顺利地去写出分论点来了。

An appreciation of art is one of the things that make life worthwhile, as it reminds people of the beauty that is all around them. Therefore in many countries public art projects such as galleries, museums and concert halls are being actively funded by the government. Although such spending will indeed promote citizens’ cultural spirit as well as strengthen a country’s historic tradition, I do not think this should be the priority responsibility of a government. I would like to point out one particular area to which the government should be giving more financial support, and that is sports and recreational facilities.

【译文】欣赏艺术也是生命意义之一，因为它让人们想起身边的美丽。因此，在许多国家，公共艺术项目，如画廊、博物馆和音乐厅都是由政府积极资助的。虽然这样的支出确实会促进公民的文化精神，并加强一个国家的历史传统，但我不认为这应该是政府的首要责任。我想指出的是，政府应该给予更多的财政支持在体育和娱乐设施。

【解析】首段就明确亮出自己的观点，全文总分总结构。

To begin with, compared with art facilities, recreational facilities such as swimming pools and playgrounds are much more essential to people’s daily life. Not everyone has a talent or interest in art. To most people, art is something lofty and even elusive, which takes a great amount of cultural knowledge and fine taste to truly understand and appreciate. But doing sports or exercises is much easier and therefore much more popular among the general public. Anyone can easily find a particular type of exercise that fits his/her physical condition and age.

【译文】首先，与艺术设施相比，游泳池和游乐场等娱乐设施对人们的日常生活更重要。不是每个人都对艺术有天赋或兴趣。对大多数人来说，艺术是一种崇高的、甚至是难以捉摸的东西，它需要大量的文化知识和良好的品味来真正理解和欣赏。但是做运动或运动要容易得多，因此在普通大众中更受欢迎。任何人都可以很容易地找到适合他/她身体状况和年龄的特定类型的运动。

【解析】正面论证自己的观点，说明为什么认为比起艺术设施，财政更应该支持休闲健身设施。

Secondly, art facilities are generally much more expensive to establish. A modern concert hall often requires elaborate decoration, comfortable seats, exquisite lighting and top-notch sound rendering system. With the same amount of investment, the government can perhaps build more than a dozen playgrounds with inexpensive but easy-to-use exercising equipment.

【译文】其次，艺术设施的建设成本通常要高得多。现代音乐厅通常需要精心装饰、舒适的座椅、精致的灯光和一流的音响渲染系统。有了同样数量的投资，政府或许可以建造十多个游乐场，廉价但易于使用的运动器材。

【解析】反面论证为什么不选择艺术设施。

Furthermore, once a museum or a concert hall is established, it usually charges a high admission fee in order to sustain its daily operation and to fund ambitious projects or performances. But in the meantime they are turning away many ordinary but genuine art lovers who may not be able to afford an expensive visit. By comparison, public recreational facilities run by the government are meant to be used by the general public at a low cost, and therefore much more accessible to people with limited financial means.

【译文】此外，一旦建立了博物馆或音乐厅，它通常会收取高额的入场费，以维持其日常运营，并为宏大的项目或演出提供资金。但与此同时，他们却抛弃了许多普通但真正的艺术爱好者，他们可能无法负担得起昂贵的参观。相比之下，由政府运营的公共娱乐设施，是由普通大众以较低的成本使用的，因此，对于财力有限的人来说，这是更容易获得的。

【解析】进一步论证自己的观点。

Therefore, the government should try all means to make art available to all instead of being the possession of only the few. Before this can be ensured, I think the government should always place the funding and construction of recreational facilities before art facilities.

【译文】因此，政府应该想尽一切办法让所有人都能享受艺术，而不是只有少数人拥有。但在此之前，我认为政府应该优先把兴建艺术娱乐设施的资金和建设放在休闲娱乐设施的建设上。

【解析】总分总结构，尾段再度重申自己的观点，首尾呼应。
